About

Paul Greedy is a Sydney based artist who’s practice engages with the phenomenal world and the complexities of physical dynamics. Through works that mediate basic phenomena such as light, sound, air pressure, temperature etc, Greedy creates situations that seek to expand our understanding of how energy manifests and shapes our impressions of the world. Paul graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts (Honours) from the University of Western Sydney in 2006, and has since exhibited at various regional and metropolitan spaces. He is currently a PhD candidate at Sydney College of the Arts, and is employed as Gallery Technician at Artspace Sydney.
